i just got a 2002 Chevy K2500 with the 8.1/Allison. so far i love the truck. i sold my 94 Chevy with the 6.5 diesel to get a Ford. i am very political and love the fact that they did not take government money. i got a 2004 F250 with the 5.4 and hated it. i sold it and went back to Chevy. not happy about the money thing but i had to go with the better truck. i am sure there is a rule about politics on here so i will stop there. i have a couple questions about the tires and Allison transmission i will get into later. also i am a little new to computers and can't spell worth squat.

Welcome to the forum and fyi, you can talk all the politcs you want in the Off Topic Section.

 

Welcome to the forum. Bet you got some power with that 8.1

 

it has more power than i thought it would have. i figured that they would have it choked down but at the same time i thought that it may not be with having the Allison. after test driving it i was impressed. the Ford 5.4 was getting 10 in the city and 13 on the highway and had no power. now i will have to see what the gas mileage is in this truck. i figure it will be the same as the ford was but with 3 times more power and a good transmission to back it up.
